New radioactivity detection system in Ostrava
In October, the new RC4138-2 Portal detection system for radioactivity (from Belgian supplier RAD/COMM Europe bv) was installed at the truck scale at CRONIMET Ostrava.
The system is used to measure incoming and outgoing materials to improve the quality of service to our suppliers and customers.
The RC4000 is extremely sensitive to low level radiation emissions from a moving vehicle, regardless of the severe background changes caused by varying scrap densities. Another extremely important point is the system's detection and elimination of background interference from the ground, brick buildings and concrete structures.
This greatly improves the detection performance of the system and virtually eliminates false alarms. The system is considered the best currently available for monitoring all types of scrap shipments.
